Vieira To Undergo Porto Medical Tuesday
Fábio Vieira will undergo a medical at Porto inTuesday ahead of a loan move to the Portuguese giants.
The final details of the deal is expected to be completed on Tuesday.
The loan deal does not include an option to buy, meaning Vieira is expected to return to Arsenal at the end of the season.
“Fábio Vieira’s loan move to Porto from Arsenal is sealed! All documents have been signed,” transfer expert Fabrizio Romano wrote on X.
“Arsenal have just authorized Fábio to travel on Tuesday for medical tests.
“Loan move confirmed, NO buy option.“
Vieira, who has struggled to secure a regular spot in Mikel Arteta’s first team, is set to rejoin the club where he initially rose to prominence before moving to North London in 2022.
According to Yahoo Sports, it is gathered that Porto have agreed to cover the entirety of Vieira’s wages during the loan period.
This development represents a significant victory for Arsenal, who initially faced the possibility of subsidising a portion of the 24-year-old’s salary.
Instead, they have secured more favourable terms, reducing their financial burden while allowing the player to gain valuable playing time back in his home country.
For Porto, the temporary addition of Vieira fills the gap left by the departure of Francisco Conceição, who is on his way to Juventus in a separate loan deal.
